The Miss Kelowna Lady of the Lake pageant was held on July 14th and as always, it was a spectacular evening of wonderful performances, evening gowns and impromptu speeches answering the question "What does it mean to you to be Canadian?" Very fitting since the entire evening centred around a Canada 150 theme. The ladies all did a spectacular job and our very own candidate, Brenda Millard, received a $250 bursary for the Lady of the Lake award which was given to the individual who displayed the most growth through the process. I can attest to the fact that she truly deserved that acknowledgement. Brenda did an amazing job and I know it was a great experience for her. Congratulations Brenda!The evening also witnessed the outgoing of our last years candidate as Lady of the Lake Princess, Rachel Sousa. As always, she was the epitome of poise, enthusiasm and grace. We should all be very proud to have represented both of these girls.
